The seller says it is an M130 6 cylinder motor.
129,000 miles.
Engine is M130.981. But in the description he says it is a 3.0L engine.
Chassis is W109.016
Is this ok?

That is the engine of choice for a 60s Mercedes, IIRC also used in the 280SL, you see the *plain jane* w108 280SE had a 160bhp M130E, but the 300SEL had the 170bhp M130E as fitted in the 280SL.
I believe Mark is correct as the BIG changes came for the 1968 model year, hence all were known as the /8s, but nowadays the /8 is used for the W114/115 cars.
With this car, you still have air springs, a nice interior with lots of wood finish but a less expensive drivetrain to worry about.
I wonder if it has the 105 liter fuel tank from the V-8s?
